Not to mention only 12 bids, all with the same seller.

You guys are over reacting. I am 100% sure everyone of those retractions are of the non malicious type. Also they are just a very dedicated bidder with a high class operation. Really why buy something cheaper someplace else when you can pay way more with them. Hey if you don't believe me just ask Betsy.

The really funny part is if they would not have posted all the cleaning up their auction BS would we even see these threads?

I was looking at a series of cards today on VCP and the delta between what PWCC cards sell for and all others is becoming so wide that either 1) PWCC has a lot of deep pocketed buyers that only do business with them or 2) They have an army of paid or employee bidders that are systematically bidding up cards

Is there an option 3?

I have lots of issues with PWCC (I know, you never would have guessed lol), but I would be shocked if they are actually paying anyone to bid on cards. I would bet a lot against it, in fact. In my opinion the issue is much more likely failure adequately to discipline/prevent consignors bidding up their own, or for friends.

Speaking of all that, I guess the tell-all we were promised by Cortney never materialized.

PS I also think there is some element of guys who bid mostly or even exclusively with them, as irrational as that seems in the days of full buyer protection, generally good customer service across the ebay platform, etc.
